- (4) Production of Polarizing Film A polarizing film was produced by performing an insolubilization process, a dyeing process, a crosslinking process, a stretching process, a fixing process process, and a drying process on the laminate prepared in (3). That is, while the laminate is immersed in an insolubilization bath containing boric acid at a concentration of 3% by mass at a temperature of 32 ° C. for 1 minute, it is uniaxial in the length direction (MD) up to twice the original length.
- MD length direction
- the amount used is 0.035% by mass of iodine and potassium iodide is mixed with water at a concentration of 0.8% by mass in water at a temperature of 20 ° C. for 0.5 minutes. While immersed, the film is uniaxially stretched in the length direction (MD) up to 3 times the original length (second-stage stretching), and then crosslinked at a temperature of 32 ° C. containing boric acid at a concentration of 2.5% by mass. While immersed in the bath for 2 minutes, it was uniaxially stretched in the length direction (MD) up to 3.6 times the original length (stretched in the third stage), and further 2.8% by mass of boric acid and potassium iodide.
- Example 1 The thickness shown in Table 1 was the same as in Example 1 except that the thickness of the PVA layer in the laminate, the temperature of the dyeing bath, the immersion time in the dyeing bath, and the composition of the dyeing bath were changed as shown in Table 1.
- the polarizing film which has was manufactured. With respect to the obtained polarizing film (after the stretched amorphous polyethylene terephthalate film layer was peeled), the absorbance, single transmittance and M / N were measured or calculated by the methods described above.
